Gratuitous check-in


For accountability on the LM-reboot, I can claim to have Done Words, to the effect that I am now in the low 60ks with a healthy ways yet to go before the end of the first of what I expect will be anywhere from a 3 to 5 book series.

To explain the Arthur Pendragon pout of my icon is that, just as I've reached a heart-in-throat scene, as of tomorrow I will be 10 days without a computer. 

The hiccup is anticipated, but so fucking awkward, because the timing couldn't be worse.  I just want to write, damn it.  I'll have pens and a notebook -- I wouldn't cut myself off cold turkey, that's just cruel -- but it's not the same thing.

*sob*


On the bright side, those 10 days without a computer are the fuck-it days on holiday, which should reset my work-irritation levels, but really will be the only holiday I'll be able to have until mid October, at the earliest, because I've gotten word of Too Much Work with a throttling deadline that will be hitting me over the summer.  So, may as well get the sunshine while I can, yeah?

Here's hoping you get ACTUAL sunshine to go along with the metaphorical sunshine of your vacation!

Enjoy your holiday. Even though it sucks when you can't write (on your computer) for that long, the break's gonna be good, I'm sure.

Awesome, glad to hear the original is coming along nicely!
Enjoy your days away, if you can!

I have a question which you don't have to go into detail on, if it will spoil points in the book of course :) Just wondering: LM is very heavy on the Arthurian mythology in general not just the Merlin (TV) specific ones, and I'm curious to know whether you're keeping the Arthurian mythology base or going an entirely different direction! :)
